Menace
Lloyd Banks (Ft. Conway The Machine)
It’s crazy how much Griselda reminds me of G-Unit.
One of my favorite albums from last year was Lloyd Banks’ The Course Of The Inevitable. What I really liked about the project is how much it reminds me of his old s**t. Really soon, Banks will drop his follow-up to COTI. To get us hyped up for it, he decided to release the first single off it, “Menace” with Conway The Machine.
“Menace” is a mean hip-hop banger. Like, you’re only supposed to listen to the song with a frown on your face and your eyes closed. While Lloyd Banks kills ’em with pure grit in his two verses, Conway’s flair is what makes his lone verse hot as hell. Both rappers do fantastic jobs of coming across as gangstas that aren’t afraid to shoot their guns or get to the money.
Lloyd Banks and Mase are two influential MCs without major resumes.
Quincy is the creator of Ratings Game Music. He loves writing about music, taking long walks on beaches, and spaghetti that fights him back.
